After their last tour Girls Names began immediately to work on a more progressive and psychedlic sound. Needful and dark inspiration was given by Echo and the Bunnymen, David Bowie's Low, The Birthday Party and Spacemen 3. After six month of hard work it's about time for Girls Names to share the new single " A Troubled Sea ". It will appear on a split 73 with label dudes Weird Dreams, available June 25 via Tough Love and one day later in the US via Slumberland Records . [...]

Well well well, what a nice Friday surprise. Belfast's Girls Names return today and are set to release new track "A Troubled See" on June 25th. continue reading >>
![[Listen] Girls Names: "A Trouble See"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4274010_lg.jpg)
Woa! No me habia dado cuenta que nunca les habia puesto nada de Girls Names hasta que me preparaba para dejarles esto nuevo que acaba de aparecer perteneciente a un nuevo split en 7" que tienen en camino este proximo 25 de Junio. Estos tipos ya tienen un par de años haciendo una musica bastante deliciosa la cual por medio de sus acordes de guitarra nos transportan a lugares sumamente playeros en donde todo es felicidad o al menos, donde uno se la puede pasar agusto con un par de bebidas refrescantes (LOL). Anyways, "A Trouble See" es el track [...]
Last year we talked about our adoration for Sea Pinks and their record Dead Seas , which you need to get if you haven't. But, I'm here to talk about a new track, sort of; this song, along with several others will comprise The Flip Side cassette being released by the Belfast group next week; it's basically a collection of B-Sides and demos since the band's incarnation. Every time I listen to this song, I can't help but wonder why on Earth it [...]
The Twisted Pepper is celebrating Record Store Day Saturday 21st April with a great afternoon of live music in association with Elastic Witch starring Optimo , Girls Names , The Last Days Of 1984 , Simon Bird , Ships, Adult Rock and Skinny Wolves DJs .

Also das Cover zur auf Slumberland erschienenen Single «Black saturday» , dass die nordirische Band Girls Names uns hier präsentiert, sieht ja mal stark nach Gothic aus. Doch obwohl schon eine gewisse Neigung zu den dunklen Ecken der Musik besteht, sind die Girls Names doch deutlich mehr „upbeat" und eher dem Gitarrenpop zuzuordnen. Ach ja, den Song gibt es sogar als kostenlosen Download. Girls Names - Bury Me from stereogum on Vimeo . Link zur Bandseite bei [...]

Here we are. The end of the sixth year of the Nialler9 poll. Thank you all once again for voting. We had about 100 or so votes that made up the results in songs , new artists, EPs and now, the big one - albums. Our ultimate winner has topped the poll before that doesn't negate the indisputable fact that there's plenty of superb Irish music contained within this list... 25. The Ambience Affair - Burials 24. LaFaro - Easy Meat [...]

Two years ago, I ran a series of guest posts from people involved in Irish music featuring their top 5 Irish acts at that moment. This time around, I thought I'd shift the focus to international and ask a similar question -

Como habitual, fica por cá o resumo do que de mais importante se passou na minha página alternativa do Facebook. A semana musical começou no dia do concerto de Washed Out, por Lisboa (ver artigo). Alusivo ao concerto, nada como imaginar que o tema "Soft" iria ser tocado. A semana continuou com sonoridades próprias para uma semana que já estaria quase a terminar, marcando presença os M83

I almost killed the site. When I decided to take a week break from posting I didn't expect for such a long dark void to follow. I had become bored with posting mp3s on the site, I wanted to do something new but couldn't figure out what that would be. After a couple harsh words from blog contributor Jen Graciano, I soon realized how stupid it would have been to shut the site down. A few weeks later we had figured what direction we wanted to take the site and began the planning stages soon after. As [...]

Belfast trio Girls Names have a new single out this week. 'Black Saturday' has elements of The Cure and The Hidden Cameras and is yours for free.
Alright, y'all know what time it is. It's the Halloweekend, and today we've got some of the best tracks from the last month that fit nicely into whatever theme-heavy environment you're trying to create. Whether it's a spare spectralness (Atlas Sound), a haunted heaviness (Crystal Stilts), or just some aggro rap music with a titular affiliation to the Antichrist ("6663), here's to hoping these 13 tracks hit home on some level. And, apologies in advance: " Werewolf Bar Mitzvah " did not make the cut. I can't believe they recorded that, until I remember that it's Tracy Morgan we're talking [...]

Girls Names will release their new track, "Black Saturday," (digitally) on October 31st via Tough Love but you can take a listen to it now right down below. Take A Listen: Black Saturday from Girls Names

New single from Slumberland's band Girls Names . Listen to Black Saturday . Girls Names - Black Saturday by Tough Love

Proprio alla vigilia del loro imminente tour italiano i Girls Names pubblicano un nuovo singolo, intitolato Black Saturday , che per quanto resti invischiato dentro la nota foschia C86 e post Jesus and Mary Chain, mi sembra più scanzonato e dai colori più accesi di come li ricordavo. Tra non molti giorni la band irlandese sarà nel nostro Paese per un tour quattro date, a presentare il debutto Dead To Me , uscito la scorsa primavera: Giovedì 27 Ottobre - Blah Blah , Torino Venerdì 28 - Lio Bar , Brescia Sabato [...]

We posted their "Bury Me" video earlier this year, and now the Belfast twee trio Girls Names are gearing up to release their debut album Dead To Me . Below, download the album track "Black Saturday." For a group whose titles are all pretty mordant, they sound pretty sprightly! Read More...
